January in New Jersey is kind of a colorless time. Everything is awash in a murky shade of gray. Lots and lots of grays and washed out browns. Not very inspiring for my color seeking eyes!But, now I have vegetables growing in my kitchen through the dead of the winter! Bringing life, light and bright color into the house - not to mention saving a few dollars. A simple trick I learned from my fabulous sister-in-law.

Trim scallions about 2" up from their roots.

Place them root down in a glass or jar with about an 1" of water.(I change the water every few days to keep it fresh)Keep them in a bright or sunny spot.

About Me

I am wife and mom, living in a quirky 90 year old house, with a full social life, a start up business, a burning need to draw and paint and… I have celiac disease.
Following a strict and super clean gluten free diet makes all of the above possible – well, at least it makes the attempt possible.
I can say this…it is well worth the trouble of following a gluten free lifestyle to have no migraines, no bone pain and the energy not only to enjoy my daughter, but the ability to get out of bed and face each day. And its the only way I would have anything left for my art. My art - that keeps me connected, grounded and whole.
